How to check
- Find out whether you run the affected product and which version, then compare it with the versions above.
How to fix
Copies a prompt for Claude Code, Cursor or Codex that asks it to check whether you run this product.
- Apply the vendor's update or mitigation from the references below. If there is none yet, limit exposure of the affected service until there is.
- If a vulnerable version was live, check your logs and rotate the secrets that server could read.
The advisory
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Use array_map_meta_equal for percpu array inner map replacement
percpu_array_map_ops.map_meta_equal points to the generic
bpf_map_meta_equal(), which does not compare max_entries. When a
percpu array serves as an inner map, replacing it with one that has
fewer max_entries bypasses the check. Since percpu_array_map_gen_lookup()
inlines the original template's index_mask as a JIT immediate, a lookup
on the replacement map can access pptrs[] out of bounds.
Point percpu_array_map_ops.map_meta_equal to array_map_meta_equal(),
which already enforces the max_entries equality check.
Add a selftest to verify that replacing a percpu array inner map with
a differently-sized one is rejected.
Check your whole app
Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
